Week 21 & 22 – Where are PLEs heading?

Posted on by Keith Aquilina

PLE - kijt

In drawing up a visualisation of my PLE, I have have come to two main points;

  • Many of my preferred tools are accessible via a web browser (obvious or not?). Tools accessed through a browser can therefore be portable i.e. Computer System independent.
  • An internet connection has become a must in different contexts mainly for work and OU activities.

I am not sure if in my representation I have been correct in ‘docking’ two VLEs as part of my PLE. Moreover the diagram does not show which tools are mostly used and which are used occasionaly.

My use of web 2.0 tools has somewhat increased, this mainly due to H800 activities…to be continued…

Currently my professional role is that of Education Officer (Quality Assurance) within the Directorate for Quality & Standards in Education in the Ministry of Education, Malta. After eight years teaching Computing and ICT within a state secondary school, I moved to the Department of eLearning where my role focused on the organisation of national educational events of which the national eLearning awards and conference, Malta Robotics Olympiad and student competitions. In addition to the work within the Department of eLearning, as from 2011 I have taken the role of ICT coordinator within the Directorate for Lifelong Learning where for 5 years, I was involved in the development and organisation of ICT related courses within the directorate’s adult education centres and collaborating entities. In 2012, I completed my Masters studies in Online and Distance Education from the Open University. This blog started off as an online reflective diary for my studies in the Masters in Online and Distance Education with the Open Univeristy. As may be easily deduced, my main interest is in technology, learning and anything in between. Linkedin; mt.linkedin.com/in/keithaquilina/
